All children aged 5 -11 continue to be offered vaccination against Covid-19.

Two doses of the vaccine (at least 12 weeks apart) should give the child long-lasting protection against serious complications of infection and some protection from mild symptoms.


To book an appointment, please visit https://www.nhs.uk/covidvaccination or call 119.

The NHS wants to support you to make an informed choice with more information available here

If you do not know your child’s NHS number you can get it:


  • by checking your child’s personal health record (the red book given to you when your child was born)


  • by checking any NHS letters, prescriptions or test results you may have received for your child



  • by asking your GP practice to help you
